If there was one word to describe Australia it would be unique. This vast continent in the southern hemisphere offers its residents and visitors such a range of unique locations and experiences you could live there your entire life and not see everything and whilst the larger metropolitan cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth all offer their own unique experience it's really the out of the way locations that will stay in your memory for a long time. One of these out-of-the-way locations is Broome, in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
The Kimberley is located on the northern section of Western Australia, and is one of nine regions of the state. It has a tropical monsoon climate, being subject to about 905 of its annual rainfall in a very period of time between November and April, known as the 'wet season', the area is also prone to cyclones and flooding during this time so its highly recommended to plan your travel outside of these months. Aside from the wet season the region takes honours for being one of the hottest parts of the country, with an average temperature of 27 degrees Celsius (approximately 81 degrees Fahrenheit), however temperatures can reach up to 40 degrees Celsius. Whilst there are generally only two seasons in The Kimberley, aborigine from the region acknowledge six seasons based on observed events to do with the plants and animals as well as those of meteorological merit.
The town of Broome started life as a pearling town and is now a thriving tourist destination welcoming visitors from all over the world and particularly Asia due to its close proximity. This connection has helped the area create its own unique culture and style with an eclectic mix of traditional aborigine beliefs, ties to the early settlers, and Asian influence, in part due to Cable Bay being the location of a telegraph cable between Broome and Java, connecting Australia to the rest of the world.
It's coastal location means visitors have a large selection of beaches to visit depending on whether they are looking for some quiet time in the sun, lots of family filled activities, or to explore natural wonders. There are also a number of indigenous experiences and attractions to see, with many offering personalised and customised adventures to suit your requirements. There are also a large range of nautical and marine related attractions dating back to the first world war, a great place for the history buff.
